Hubbies/doulas

Hey ladies just wondering If any of you have used a doula for your L&D and if so, how did your DH/SO feel about the experience with a doula. I have hired one and am very excited as I want to do a natural labor but DH has expressed that he is worried about having a doula because he doesn't want anyone telling him what to do, feels he will be uncomfortable interacting with me with her in the room, and just doesn't think we need one that he can be my "coach". This is our first. If anyone has experience especially with how your SO felt about your doula experience I would love some help. Thanks!
